[Verse 1]
C                   G
Roses are red, your eyes were blue
  Am            F
I only knew this idea of you
C                   G
One day, maybe I’ll know the truth
      Am               F
Maybe one day, you can tell me

C                G
In my dreams, in reality
     Am               F
Your presence lingers inside of me
C                   G
One day, maybe I’ll finally meet it
Am            F
One day, I’ll understand


[Pre-Chorus]
F
They say, “It’s just an illusion.”
             C          G
But why do I feel it so deeply?
F
It burns a hole in my heart
      C           G
Is it here? Is it with me?


[Chorus]
F
Ignites the fire
          G
Burns the bridges down
  F
Becomes the light
          G
It passes all around
F
Speeds up time
       G
And it slows it down
        C                 G
It’s my enemy and my best friend

F
Stormy skies grey
        G
Puddles flood the ground
   F
It clears the skies up
              G
And let's the sun rays out
    F
The colours in the meadow
        G
Flowers all around
      C           G
Is it here? Is it with me?


[Verse 2]
C                       G
High above, I’m sitting in the tree
Am                  F
Gazing out, looking at the sea
C                               G
My reflection’s the one staring back at me
Am                            F
Maybe that’s the thing that I need


[Pre-Chorus]
F
They say, “It’s just an illusion.”
             C          G
But why do I feel it so deeply?
F
It fills the hole in my heart
      C           G
Is it here? Is it with me?


[Chorus]
F
Ignites the fire
          G
Burns the bridges down
  F
Becomes the light
          G
It passes all around
F
Speeds up time
       G
And it slows it down
        C                 G
It’s my enemy and my best friend

F
Stormy skies grey
        G
Puddles flood the ground
   F
It clears the skies up
              G
And let's the sun rays out
    F
The colours in the meadow
        G
Flowers all around
      C           G
Is it here? Is it with me?


[Bridge]
Am
It’s a fire
       G
It’s a bridge
             C           G
It’s a great big storm

Am
In the sea
          G
Is it me
                 C        G
That I’m looking for?


[Chorus]
F
Ignites the fire
          G
Burns the bridges down
  F
Becomes the light
          G
It passes all around
F
Speeds up time
       G
And it slows it down
        C                 G
It’s my enemy and my best friend

F
Stormy skies grey
        G
Puddles flood the ground
   F
It clears the skies up
              G
And let's the sun rays out
    F
The colours in the meadow
        G
Flowers all around
      C           G
Is it here? Is it with me?


[Outro]
F
Lost in the sound
       G
At the speed of light
F                       G
One day, maybe when the time is right
F                      G
I’ll see it clearly in front of my eyes
     C                       G
I’ll see the flowers and you
